Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day, but for the Brooklyn Nets, the hours leading up to tonight’s contest had to feel like those last few days as a kid before winter break. That’s not just because it snowed outside today for the first time in almost two years.

It’s hard to not be excited about that. But cutting into that is the thought of those exhausting final exams you’ll need to tackle beforehand.
